Today, Chrysler released a few high-resolution images of its Ram Long-Hauler concept truck that we reported on earlier. Among the photos is a shot of the interior and Long-Hauler badging on the seat.

With a midship fuel tank combined with a frame-mounted tank and an optional bed-mounted auxiliary tank, the Long-Hauler's total fuel capacity is 170 gallons (revised from the 160-gallon figure we initially reported).

Interior items designed to help the driver monitor vehicle performance include a rear axle temperature gauge and exhaust gas temperature and boost gauges housed in the center console.

The concept truck will be going on a national tour for the next eight months — starting this weekend at the Kentucky Derby — to gauge public interest. The images, along with the tentative show schedule, are below.
